From Arkansas News:
State Sen. Gilbert Baker of Conway today reported raising more than $500,000 in the past month for his campaign for the Republican U.S. Senate nomination.
Baker is one of seven announced GOP candidates seeking the party’s nomination to challenge Democratic incumbent Blanche Lincoln in 2010. Lincoln, who is seeking her third term, has more than $3.2 million in the bank for her re-election bid.
Baker, a former chairman of the state Republican Party who announced his U.S. Senate bid Sept. 1, did not say how much his campaign has spent or has in the bank.
Candidates for the U.S. Senate have until Oct. 15 to file quarterly campaign finance reports.
